TOPIC | More skins selected during festival
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Another year another festival cycle, right now there's ALWAYS 14 skins/accents. This was fine when there were fewer breeds, but FR has expanded a bit these last 8 years.

Every festival there are complaints that the good skins aren't chosen, or their favourite breed never gets festival skins. While i know you can't satisfy everyone i believe expanding the skin selection would help quite a bit :)

My suggestion would be 16-18 skins for the coming festivals :)

*edit whoops, there are actually 14 skins. So i'm changing it from 14-16 to 16-18.

Support. I say add one skin for each method of obtaining. That is, one more for coliseum, one for marketplace, one for brewing. EDIT - Just wanted to add that I mean adding at least one skin per collection method with all skins (aside from brewing) still be obtainable in the market for treasure.

Another skin should be a guaranteed skin/accent of a breed of that festivals' flight. That way every breed has a better chance of being represented.

As big fan of Ridgebacks it is almost always my personal pain when here is lots of skins for lots of breeds but for some reasons Ridgebacks skins are either inexistent or just simple afterthought picks..
So, yeah, SUPPORT with every fiber of my soul.

Support! The userbase is much bigger than it was when the skin contests were started, it only makes sense to choose a wider variety of winners to appeal to more people.

Only if the price per skin goes down. It can take a lot for a casual player just to earn enough to get the festival items they want before the festival ends and inflation hits. I'd hate to see FR become so focused on the festivals that players have no time left for personal goals.

I thought there already were 14 skins selected

6 chest, 6 mp exclusive and 2 baldwin exclusive.

Anyway, with the new mechanic for obtaining items, I tentatively support adding more.

They could be like the chests, but instead of being found through the coliseum, they are found through the new mechanics (bonding, breeding ,exalting, etc..) and the MP (as RNG is just a bit too unreliable to have them be exclusive to those mechanics.


I however would like a hard cap of 20 skins per festival. I feel that adding more after that would start making it get super stressful, especially to those who might want all the festivals (you don't have to collect them all, but some people do feel the need to do so, and that doesn't help when someone might actually like and want all skins in a particular festival)

I also don't consider the idea that you can get them in Joxar's Chests a solution to not being able to collect all the skins during the fest either, as that is too RNG and there are a great many skins available through that method for it to be reliable even outside of RNG.

Edit: I also don't think they should be just tossed into the Coliseum, even in addition to the other methods, because that dilutes the coli chest RNG and some people collecting those chests. Imagine how it would feel to constantly get the same chests in the coliseum, and they are ones that you can also get through bonding with your familiars, or breeding or any other method that gives those chests, yet you aren't getting the chests you need that only drop from the coliseum. (yeah, you can buy the skins itself, but it doesn't help those who want to collect the actual chests themselves)

Since we now have more breeds too, I think it would be a good idea to select more skins? There are breeds that are really lacking when it comes to official skins and maybe if more skins were selected for each festival, some of the less popular breeds/poses would also get more skins.

In other words, support.

@Jemadar

lol whoops you're right there are 14 not 12. But still expanding it to 16 would be nice :)

i think it would be super cool to add chests with the new mechanic as well. You would have a low chance of getting any chest when doing the regular activities

Support as long as the MP price per skin is adjusted downward.
I have had a bunch of really lousy festival runs lately (3-4+ hours a day every day in coli with no chests drops at all the entire fest, maybe one if I'm lucky) being stuck buying all the skins is expensive enough it's really not fun, I'd rather not see the cost outlay go up any higher.
